[Solved] Problems in trigger running

[Jay the Editor]

This is one of the spell I'm going to put it in my spellpack but somehow it doesn't even work during the loop trigger.

Triggers

The loop trigger is not complete (the rotation part) yet but I don't think that's the factor of the trigger can't run, isn't it? The problem is the message display during the loop trigger that reads "Worked!" don't even display when cast while the Lightning Ball created and the message "Trigger running" able to display. I guess that's the problem of "For Each Integer ..." but I don't know how to solve it. Can anyone help me? I'm in desperate to complete this spellpack as soon as possible. Credits sure will be given.

I guess PC_Index_size is 1 ? looping from 1 to 1 in GUI doesnt run the loop.

 

[Jay the Editor]

No. Looping from 1 to 1 actually work in GUI. It's Hanky's dynamic indexing system. Anyway, thanks for trying

EDIT: I figured out my problem. I set it wrongly at this point.

• Set PC_index_size = PC_index_max

which it should be like this

• Set PC_index_max = PC_index_size

Problem solved
